Well, it's got syringe hands.


I dunno... those look more like Chrysler Building hands to me.

I've been trying to determine a timeline of tachOmeter vs tachYmeter

Probably when they realized their watch was meant to determine speed over a set distance, rather than the speed of an engine's internals?

Another one to add to my quartz diver collection, and pretty sure it's a genuine issued one too. Really happy 😀

That add... IS AWESOME!

Haha I know! And it is so absolutely the wrong watch for that bespoke-suit-and-fedora look! With such an awful watch-suit combination, the guy must be a British intelligence agent. Definitely Double-0-something.

Kind of reminds me of David McCallum...

the hands on this one got me to make a compulsive offer that was unexpectedly accepted. First photo was before a lot of polywatch, though the crystal is still very crazed. Dial and hands are otherwise very clean.

Oh man, my WM is still busy with mine, it's turning into a 15 month project that's had one too many trials and tribulations on the way. I'm hopeful that I'm going to get it some time next week.

The stack o' Carreras continues to grow. And I'm fine with that.

That is absolutely awesome Rob! Fantastic catch. I wonder how you do it....(besides sitting on a strong currency of course.....🙄)
